Скачать или смотреть POWERFUL Christian Narration Of "This Darkness Was Mine" Poem | Inspired By St. Paul's Romans 1

This poem is a reflection of the first chapter of the book of Romans in the Bible. It mostly covers mostly what is written about in Romans 1:18-32.

The first part of the poem talks about glorifying God and praising the works of His hands. The second part of the poem transitions to the fact that rebellious and wicked men have set God aside to worship what is created (idols). The third part talks about the Christian being spared from the darkness of God giving us over to the lustful and shameful desires of hearts and being redeemed through Christ Jesus!

The poem is written by Addison Riddleberger.

The poem:

Green grass flows across open meadows
Blue skies touch the deep waters below
Red blood pours from wounds on Calvary
To God be the glory for the colors we see

As lusterless candlelight licks the air
Our star’s warm light continues to care
Yet the Light of men outshines them all
For no colors exist without Him who calls

In the culmination of heaven’s dye
A rainbow glimmers from on high
But darkness festers in wicked men
Who defile creation to no end

To those who exchange His truth for sin
God gives them over, and over again
They worship creation and not the Creator
Wallow in lies that grow ever greater

Grateful I am that Christ called the blind
How fearsome to know this darkness was mine
Lord God, give me over to your honor and glory
And create in me a redemption story
